This is the important bit, the whole ground move will be a success or failure though our commitment to make it work, both the club, the players and our "lapse" fans have all used the willows as an excuse not to go/perform, this is no more so there is no more excuses in my book.

We as a club have taken a leap of faith out of the shadows, and for once I applaud their bravery, we are always asking about the club showing some ambition, we could have easily stayed @ the willows 3 years down the line got kicked out the superleague and we experience a slow painful death its plain and simple as that in my book.

This move is the biggest thing our club has ever done, for once from top to bottom the pressure is on to perform be that on the field, in the shop or some community officer.
Some people will be found out, some people will Excel its the way the world works.

The traffic is going to be a big issue, I don't feel tea time traffic will be a problem the problem will be us the fans getting to the stadium. the club and the stadium have come up with a plan to get everyone in and out quick and safe, I suspect there will be queues both in and out but the road is one way in and one way out unlike the willows which was a so many entrances and exits you could disappear into the night 10 mins after full time and not hit any traffic.

I just hope us the fans create a positive buzz about the new place bring back the old fans who have gone by the wayside and bring the new fans in who were put off by the willows and the surrounding area, its in our hands we are the people who will make this a success or failure not the about of traffic there is, what day we play or how many away fans Rock up.

To be honest it's not the Willows that's been the excuse it's watching the constant drivel on the field season after season, coupled with the fact that the club have seemed totally unprofessional in everything they have done.

I for one hope the new stadium is the Dawn of a new era for Salford RLFC and I do think there will be an initial significant interest at the new stadium I hope this can be sustained by performances and results.

An interesting point to consider - maybe we are choosing Friday to get Friday's set aside for us as it is the more popular corporate choice
Should they also become a tenant of the stadium, Sale will then have to work around that and change days if there's any fixture clash

We are just tennants, we wont have any say on how the stadium works and what plans it has to make it a popular venue for supporters both old / new / visitors, so our "unprofessionalism" which does rear its ugly head both on and off the field at times will be soley concentrated on what is most important....the rugby and promoting the rugby in the area, hopefully without the distractions of running the ground and trying to improve the match day experience the club can channel its energies into the right areas to make our move a roaring success.

Since Wigan became tenants their rugby has gone up a notch.
